...
Roll along, hoop, or we shall be late."
Minna sings:
"Trip about, slip about, whip about
Hoop.
Wheel like a top at its quickest spin,
Then, dear hoop, we shall surely win.
First to the greenhouse and then to the wall
Circle and circle,
And let the wind push you,
Poke you,
Brush you,
And not let you fall.
Whirring you round like a wreath of mist.
Hoopety hoop,
Twist,
Twist."
Tap! Tap! go the hoop-sticks,
And the hoops bowl along under a grape arbour.
For an instant their will...Read more of this...

...te
Makes clear the passage of her gliding noate;
Then crosse division diversly shee playes,
And loudly chanting out her quickest layes
Poises the sounds, and with a quivering voice
Falls back again: he (wondering how so choise,
So various harmony should issue out
From such a little throate) doth go about
Some harder lessons, and with wondrous art
Changing the strings, doth upp the treble dart,
And downwards smites the base; with painefull stroke
Hee beats, and as the trumpet ...Read more of this...

...Prince, show me the quickest way and best
To gain the subject of my moan;
We've neither spinsters nor relics out West--
These do I love, and these alone....Read more of this...

...of any quadruped.
For the dexterity of his defence is an instance of the love of God to him exceedingly.
For he is the quickest to his mark of any creature.
For he is tenacious of his point.
For he is a mixture of gravity and waggery.
For he knows that God is his Saviour.
For there is nothing sweeter than his peace when at rest.
For there is nothing brisker than his life when in motion.
For he is of the Lord's poor and so indeed is he called by benevolence perpetually--Poor ...Read more of this...

..., the amorous burn -- 
But pr'ythee, do not turn 
The current of your heart from me so soon. 
O! save, in charity, 
The quickest pulse for me.

Save it for me, sweet love! though music breathe 
Voluptuous visions into the warm air; 
Though swimming through the dance's dangerous wreath, 
Be like an April day, 
Smiling and cold and gay, 
A temperate lilly, temperate as fair; 
Then, Heaven! there will be 
A warmer June for me.

Why, this, you'll say, my Fanny! is not true:

...ou hast not seen, much less her glory,
Empires, and monarchs, and their radiant courts—
Best school of best experience, quickest in sight
In all things that to greatest actions lead.
The wisest, unexperienced, will be ever 
Timorous, and loth, with novice modesty
(As he who, seeking asses, found a kingdom)
Irresolute, unhardy, unadventrous.
But I will bring thee where thou soon shalt quit
Those rudiments, and see before thine eyes
The monarchies of the Earth, their pomp and s...Read more of this...

...t's part of growing older
and the human race as a group
has matured along the same lines.
It seems our comedy dates the quickest.
If you laugh out loud at Shakespeare's jokes
I hope you won't be insulted
if I say you're trying too hard.
Even sketches from the original Saturday Night Live
seem slow-witted and obvious now.

It's just that our advances are irrepressible.
Nowadays little kids can't even set up lemonade stands.
It makes people too self-conscious about the past,

...g time; 

But, seeing how much Thy creatures bear - 
 Lame, starved, or maimed, or blind - 
Thou'dst heal the ills with quickest care 
 Of me and all my kind. 

Then, since Thou mak'st not these things be, 
 But these things dost not know, 
I'll praise Thee as were shown to me 
 The mercies Thou would'st show!...Read more of this...

...ish of the local thoroughbreds. 

Pat M'Durmer was the owner of a horse they called the Screamer, 
Which he called "the quickest stepper 'twixt the Darling and the sea", 
And I think it's very doubtful if the stomach-troubled dreamer 
Ever saw a more outrageous piece of equine scenery; 
For his points were most decided, from his end to his beginning, 
He had eyes of different colour, and his legs they wasn't mates. 
Pat M'Durmer said he always came "widin a flip of winnin'", ...Read more of this...
